LOKPAL BILL INDIA
Today Nation is against the corrupt forces. Anna Hazare has started a new movement.
The Lokpal which is a body with a chairperson who is or was a Chief Justice of India and eight other members including four judicial members - who will be former or sitting judges of Supreme Court or chief justices of the high court.
The Lokpal Bill, an effort to Stop the constant corruption in public life, was first floated in the late 60s, but failed to become law despite successive attempts.
Implementation of the Lokpal Bill will hopefully reduce corruption in India.
It provides for filing complaints of corruption against ministers and members of parliament.
The government's Lokpal Bill has kept the Prime Minister and the judiciary as well as conduct of MPs in Parliament out of the sphere of the anti-corruption watchdog.
The bill gives permission to Lokpal to probe any Union minister or officials above rank without any sanction.
The Lokpal will have its own prosecution and investigation wing with officers and staff necessary to carry out its functions.

Land Acquisition
We do like to invest for our future benefits. Investment in House or Plot is consider to be one of the best investment. But now we have encountered few cases where Lands were forcefully or inappropriately acquired. There were few Laws and agreement on Land regulations which needs to be imposed.
Land acquisition means legal acquisition of land by the government (central or state) or government agency for some public purpose (like educational institute, hospitals etc.) from the individual landowner by paying a fixed compensation. Be it Mayawati's invocation of 'emergency powers' to acquire land in Greater Noida or Tata-Singur land issue, or the latest, POSCO's project halted at Jagatsinghpur demanding enhanced compensation to land losers. Land acquisition are disturbing not only policymakers and industry but also the civil society and the citizens.
who defines the market value of land? This is especially relevant in a scenario where land is not routinely bought and sold. As a result, the market price of land becomes a nebulous concept. The buyer has to negotiate the price of land with each seller who may have a different perception of the market price.
While we should learn from the states that have managed to acquire land successfully, it is necessary to adopt new innovations. We need complete digitisation of land records throughout the country to ensure that the rightful owner benefits from the compensation measures.
The apex realty body CREDAI said that purchase of private land should not be covered under the proposed land acquisition bill else housing prices would rise sharply and the township development would be difficult.
The Ministry of Rural Development has posted 'The Draft National Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R) Bill, 2011' on its website for public comments. According to the draft, R&R provisions will apply only when private firms buy land, equal to or more than 100 acres, on their own and if they approach the government for partial acquisition for public purpose. No private land acquisition should be covered under the proposed Act. If this is covered, housing prices will go up.
In case of urban areas, the compensation amount would be not less than twice that of the market value determined, whereas in rural areas it would be multiple times the original market value."In R&R benefits, the stipulation regarding giving 20 per cent of the developed land back to owner will make township project which are out of reach for middle-class buyer," CREDAI said.

Unwanted Treasure
I was exclaimed in joy when i got my first job. I was so excited that i could have thrown party to the city. Its like days of hard work and sleepless nights were now giving me rewards.
There was time i spent entire day searching for job and eating a rolled sandwich which was the only food i could afford. I woke up early in the morning and rushed to open and check and my mail if in case i might have got some interview schedule, with heart of aspirations and desperation of job i would have checked my mail box almost all the clicks of seconds.
Having dreams to become successful and live my life on my style and rule ( which has no rules).I started my job hunt as soon as i hold my MBA Degree with dual specialization of HR and IT.Hoping this could be deadly weapon to hold in corporate battle field. I was not known that the world has already knocked down punches on other aspirant students like me.
I used to knock doors on entire corporate world but its like common statement : we will get back to you. I even spent my entire energy and penny for searching the contact person in the telephone directory. After several months finally i got the right connection. they told they would like to take me as trainee, i thought at least this could be my first step i accepted that.
The day i joined i was overwhelmed with the environment and work culture. I was allotted a desk in the corner, the desk was full of papers and files. It seems i was thrown into a garbage plant. I was asked to consolidated the various reports by digging into those files. Also i was treated like i am alien and came to attack their planet.I feel we all are struggling for unwanted treasure.
Well this isn't enough : i was asked to work in a profile which could be easily handled by any other graduates. but rather then roaming on road, cybercafes and listening to hard cunning words from this cruel world i have no other choice to accept that job.... After several years today i am standing in front of that office and just whispered to myself, though i got rid of you but still that mark is within me.
Guys : Prepare yourself this world will not give you if you ask something, you have to fight it and take it........

London Riots
London is going under tremendous pressure. British Prime Minister David Cameron said on Tuesday police will crack down hard to suppress a wave of rioting and looting across London, he said this was the worst violence in the British capital in decades.
Politicians and police firmly blamed the violence, in which shops were looted and cars and buildings set ablaze in several mostly poor areas of London.
But some commentators and local residents said its roots lay in tensions and anger over economic hardship in a city where the gap between the haves and have-nots is highly visible and the prospects for many youths are in danger.
There are problems in terms of Jobs and Money. The unrest poses an added challenge to Cameron as Britain's economy struggles to grow while his government slashes public spending and raises taxes to help eliminate a budget deficit.
They also show an ugly side of London to the rest of the world less than a year before it hosts the 2012 Olympic Games, an event which organizers hope will showcase a dynamic, prosperous and cosmopolitan city.
However, police have also faced criticism for failing to bring the situation under control as gangs of youths mobilized using social media and looted shops at leisure.
The first riots broke out on Saturday in London's northern Tottenham district, when a peaceful protest over the police shooting of a suspect two days earlier led to violence.
Tottenham includes areas with the highest unemployment rates in London. It also has a history of racial tension with local young people, especially blacks, resenting police behavior including the use of stop and search powers.

Global Economic Crisis
The global economy stumbled again, but now its deeper into crisis as stock markets slow down further and also the investors losing confidence that the United States and Europe can rein in their debt burdens quickly.
European and Asian shares tumbled .Investors fear that, with confidence in the global economy's prospects evaporating, financial markets will remain in a slump.
Global leaders have failed to reverse the sliding markets.In the United States, President Barack Obama called on Monday for urgent action on the U.S. budget deficit, but his proposal on taxes was promptly refused by Republicans.
"Markets can adjust to a downgrade of global growth, but they cannot cope with a increase loss of confidence in leadership and a growing sense that policymakers are disconnected from reality."
On the political front, Obama said on Monday he hoped the loss of the prized AAA credit rating would add urgency to U.S. budget cutting plans.
